4 out of 5 stars If you give it a chance you won't be disappointed.   September 7, 2008

I really don't understand how the critics gave this game such poor reviews. While this game is not prefect, it has a lot going for it, mainly the fun factor (especially in co-op).
- The camera and controls are tolerable once you get used to them and then the melee actually makes sense. I think I am just about finished with the main campaign and I am already looking forward to playing through with another class.
- While the graphics are adequate, I wish Silicon Knights could have gotten the Unreal Engine to work for them since I saw a lot of potential in the art direction of the game. I hope they make up with Epic (since they are trying to take them to court over the engine not working for them, siting this as a cause for the release delay)and get the next two games working with it.
- I am really digging the setting (Norse Mythology in the future) and can't wait to see how the story plays out in this installment.

This game is awsome and fun. I will admit that there are some bugs. the camera does screw you up sometimes but press Lb and the camera fixes itself. read the instructions in the game and you wont have problems with melee or shooting.

I love the game and you will too if you enjoy titles like Diablo. It has a few flaws with the camera, but other than that it's nearly perfect. A lot of people are down on the game due to the platform its exclusive to. Give the game a rent like I did and you'll be surprised by it.

What a rip off. Microsoft should be ashamed of itself. There should be a warning lable on this one like cigretts. Dangerous to your mental stability. If this were the only game I saw I would never even start playing video games.

This game has no redeaming qualities at all.

Because it cost $ I have been playing for hours and can still not understand that dumb tree. I want to use the spider but I can't figure out how it works. I am on the third story line and still can't do anything. I simply randomly press every button and twirl every analog stick and things happen but I don't know why or what.

Really we need a warning system so we don't buy garbage like this. Really Amazon you shouldn't offer games like this to your customers.

Better forget this one. Not even worth a $1.00 bargen basement left over junk box sale.

The camera angles in this game were possibly the worst that I have ever seen. (and that includes the Lord Of The Rings games). This made the tough fight sequences nearly impossible, as you would be facing the wall half of the time without being able to tell. The reason I rate it so highly still (and yes, for this game 2 is high) is because the cut-scenes and story behind the game were excellent. Hopefully the designers decide that players will actually need to see their enemies before they go ahead and make the second game.
